6U Gridfinity Modular Drawer System

I loved Chipp Walter's Gridfinity drawers, but I saw a few people wished it featured 6U drawers. Well here it is!

Can you please make a 4x3 version? I have a smaller printer and it doesn't fit.
It would also be good to have the cheaper filament version. Thank you! :)

Hi Isambard,

any chance for getting the 6u in a 5x4 grid or the cad files for drawing ?

would appreciate it very much !
…think, it should be possible to print @mk4

Thanks. This was the design that worked best for me.

Do you have a single drawer version of the honeycomb one?

Honeycomb prints well. Only issue I found is the feet and the top foot recess are different sizes than the original design so they will not sit correctly on top of the 4u one and a 4u will not sit on top of these ones.

@samjam_1633986 How off is it? like something I could correct with a razor blade? or bigger issue than that?

What did you use to put on top of it for additional gridfinity slots?

Great for my 6u screw boxes, just one thing where can I find the correct top-tray-foot and top-tray-with-4-holes that fit the 6u boxes~~

Stores all sorts of 6u items and some paints on top nicely!

I did find that the handle from the original was a tough fit - however typically pushing it very hard would eventually cause it to snap on. I did break one (Matte PLA) drawer this way however. Basic PLA worked great. (edited)

Doesn't look like Chipp's handle fully fits this model, so I designed one that fits and is a bit wider. Some CA across the whole handle and it should feel a lot more solid.

Printed well, no issues dropping other gridfinity cubes into the drawer.

Works great and I love the hex design! The handles from the original design don't fit very well but I think that's a problem with the original too.

Made the mistake of printing with supports. That was a blast to clean up.
